ztrevs 2017 BRZ Build
 

Hey guys! Super excited to be finally putting out a detailed build of my BRZ.
Took delivery of it Sep 2016, sitting at 10,000 KMs as of posting.

The goals I have are simple, I'd be breaking it down into phases:

2017 - Phase I: Aesthetics

My goal for this year was just to get the car how I wanted it to look. Now that I'm super happy with it, 2018 is the big year!

Great looking ride. How do you like those coilovers? The wheel fitment looks on point.

Looks great. More pictures!

Great set of coils. Build quality is fantastic. I don't have experience with others so I can't really compare ride qualities, but they sure do handle a mean corner nicely.

Welp, spring time has rolled around... even though its still snowing I couldn't stare at these parts sitting any longer. The Subaru rumble is addicting!
Looking forward to the first track day in May! :)

We are back baby!!
The sun is out, and track day in about a week.

Tune + UEL + Catback are matches made in heaven. They make the car sound fantastic and make the twins so much more powerful!

Next up on the list of mods... shred through my OEM pads/OEM tires and buy some good bits!

Had a great experience at the track this past weekend! My biggest limitations were definitely stock tires/brakes.

Currently saving up and will invest in a track set up soon!

Awesome Thread man!!! Keep it up! really nice to see a build thread from a fellow Canadian.

Where did you track if you dont mind me asking?

TE37s are always the right choice

Form works for street cars and drifting..but for grip driving you hit your limits really quick.

Please tell me you're gonna join the meaty tire crew! :happyanim:

Jelly. :w00t:

Ahh! Hopefully i'll run into you one day if youre in the GTA! I ran full track at Shannonville

Yes sir! 255/40/17 RS4s at the shop waiting to be mounted. Currently waiting for the ceramic coating to cure and then they're on the car!
